Daedalus and F-302's

Nebula looks excellent. As for AA, sometimes the AA pass can dim the stars, however, in other respects it is much better for the image overall. On occasion I've used PSP8 to combine non AA stars back into the image to boost their brightness, some fiddling is required to do this but to me it seems that stars are never quite bright enough in Bryce and they will stand any tricks used to boost them up a bit.
Thank you, I re-rendered with AA and it does look much better, and I shall keep AA on for all of my other pictures.
This is an absolutely plausible deep sky. Awsome. 5/5 from me for that, ignoring for once that AA-ing was left out.
Connor, AA is short for anti-aliasing. It is the final render pass that smoothes out the pixels. Gat has a sharp eye for such things and now that he mentioned it I too can see clearly what he means. You need to make sure that you never disable the anti-alias in the document settings. Although anti-aliasing adds a bit of time to the render, it is also the only way to get a full render, renders are just plain incomplete without the anit-alias pass. Notice for instance the white hexagons of the ship, notice how the edges are very pixelated, this is because the anti-alias was disabled so those pixels never had the chance to smooth out and blend together. Anti-aliasing adds a great deal to the apparent resolution of the image, at least doubling the "quality" of the finished render. Nice work over-all!
Connorzelinsky, my website is: www.urhajo.tvn.hu and my e-mail: janos_32@yahoo.com . thanks . verry nice picture :-)
Quick question, what does "a bit of AA issue" mean?
. nicely done, a bit of AA issue, could be from volumetric material?
Thank you for the wonderful comments. Miklos, how do I give you the ship model? and you said you had a web site with free starships on it, but what is you website address?
-- verry nice. a 5 from me :-) I'd like to have the 3d ship model :-)
Cool battle group here. And I echo Rashad on the nebula. Very nicely done!
The nebula looks incredible. I like the ships approaching the camera. You did a terrific job capturing the grandness of outer space. Excellent work!
